Today we’re going to have a little #realtalk about a silly myth that curvy girls can’t or shouldn’t tuck their shirts into their pants.

Until recently, I was terrified of tucking my shirt into my pants or wearing bodysuits. I was in the mindset that I should only wear styles that hid my stomach and made me look “skinny.” Because, why would I want to highlight my no-where near flat belly?!

We tend not to want to offend anyone by drawing attention to our “imperfections,” but I say screw that. I see comments from women all over Instagram and the internet saying they wish they could tuck in their shirts, and I’m here to tell you that YOU CAN. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with showing off your curves, and NO need to hide them!

As a size 12/14 woman with plenty of curves, there is nothing more empowering than breaking a fashion stereotype and wearing what the heck you want and feeling fabulous doing it. Looking back, whenever I tried to wear baggy clothes to hide my body, I looked even bigger than I actually was. Tucking in your shirt (or bodysuit) into your pants elongates your torso and accentuates your waist line. It’s a style ANYONE can pull off!

I truly believe that this trend is for all women of all shapes and sizes, and I’m so glad I finally decided to give it a try.

Is this a trend you have ever tried out? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
